About Quinn

Quinn Rivenburgh MAAT, ATR-BC, ATCS, LAT, LPC is an art therapist and clinical supervisor currently residing on unceded Clackamas, Kalapuya, and Cowlitz land, AKA Portland, Oregon. They practice from a feminist, Relational-Cultural framework and incorporate principles of Narrative Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Somatic Experiencing into their work. 

Quinn's areas of knowing include queer and trans liberation, with a special focus on the lives of transgender and gender diverse people. They have worked with a broad range of settings including inpatient psychiatric, assisted living, day treatment, and outpatient agencies with clients ages 5 to 105. 

In their service toward nurturing the next generation of therapists as a clinical supervisor and educator, Quinn aims to uphold the sacredness of mental health work. For Quinn, co-deepening into clinical supervision entails walking with supervisees as they find their own lineage and guides, disentangling their own unhealed hurts and intergenerational traumas from their compassionate action in the context of the counseling relationship. Quinn’s goal is that therapists can find their own hows and whys in this work, and remember that they are not alone. 

Quinn also practices ecosystem restoration and permaculture landscape design, and can be found clipping invasive English Ivy from Douglas Firs, Western Red Cedars, and Bigleaf Maples or creating beaver dam analogues in the forest behind their home. They sit in meditation with the Zen Community of Oregon and are studying the 16 Bodhisattva Precepts in the Soto Zen Buddhist tradition.
